0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Conostix S.A. is a small Luxembourg-based technology company specializing in security and system services, with a focus on security management consultancy, tailored open source software solutions, and customer care. Founded in 2001, the company positions itself as a niche provider for enterprises requiring advanced security expertise. The website content reflects this business focus but is basic in design and technical sophistication. Technically, the website is a simple HTML and CSS implementation with no detected CMS or advanced frameworks. There is no evidence of HTTPS enforcement or security headers, and mobile optimization is poor. The site lacks privacy and cookie policies, contact information, and incident response details, indicating limited digital maturity and compliance readiness. From a security perspective, the domain is well-established with consistent WHOIS data and clientTransferProhibited status, supporting legitimacy. However, the absence of HTTPS and security headers, as well as missing privacy compliance elements, represent vulnerabilities and compliance gaps. No forms or data collection mechanisms were found, reducing immediate data exposure risks. Overall, the website presents a moderate risk profile with room for significant improvements in security posture, privacy compliance, and technical modernization. Strategic recommendations include implementing HTTPS, adding privacy and cookie policies, improving mobile responsiveness, and enhancing security headers and incident response capabilities.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

7 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Conostix operates in the technology sector, focusing on security consultancy and tailored open source solutions primarily for Luxembourg-based enterprises. Its long domain registration and event sponsorships indicate stable market presence and community engagement. The business model centers on service delivery rather than product sales, targeting organizations needing complex security projects and compliance assistance. The lack of visible contact details and limited online presence may constrain growth and customer acquisition. Partnerships with companies like Kappa Data and RUCKUS Networks suggest a collaborative ecosystem. The company’s niche focus and longevity provide competitive advantages, but digital presence modernization is advisable to enhance market reach and credibility.

Security posture

The current security posture is basic with notable gaps. The domain is registered securely with clientTransferProhibited status, reducing risk of hijacking. However, the website lacks HTTPS enforcement and security headers, which are critical for protecting data in transit and mitigating common web attacks. No privacy or cookie policies are present, indicating non-compliance with GDPR and related regulations. Absence of incident response contacts and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms further weakens security readiness. No forms or scripts were detected, limiting attack surface but also indicating minimal user engagement features. Overall, the security maturity is low to moderate, requiring prioritized improvements to meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate and enforce HTTPS site-wide.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  3. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Publish clear contact information including security incident response and abuse contacts.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility to enhance user experience and compliance.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built using basic HTML and CSS without modern frameworks or CMS. No JavaScript libraries or analytics tools were detected, indicating minimal technical complexity. The site lacks mobile responsiveness and accessibility features, which may impact usability and SEO. Hosting details are limited but DNS is managed on company-specific name servers, suggesting some control over infrastructure. Performance is likely moderate given the simple design but could be improved with modern optimization techniques. Technical debt is evident in outdated encoding (iso-8859-1) and lack of HTTPS. Modernization opportunities include adopting responsive design, implementing HTTPS, and integrating SEO and accessibility best practices to improve overall digital maturity.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
